Roche in Africa

Improving health is central to fulfilling the immense potential of the African continent, yet millions of people face obstacles at every step of their health journey. At Roche, we are working toward a future where every African person can access world-class healthcare by contributing to bold solutions that accelerate progress on the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and advance national universal health coverage (UHC) efforts.

This short video outlines our commitment to working with all stakeholders involved in healthcare so that we can correct unacceptable inequities in care by increasing access to innovative diagnostics and treatments, advancing regional research and development, supporting medical education and capacity building, and fostering technical skills and innovation across the continent. Together, we can achieve a healthier future for all Africans.
